I'd jump all over this if i could sell my cardiff fast enough. Thats a crazy deal!!!

im in

ive been putting in a lot of time on the delta lately. squarebills over the top of grass beds and grass lines have been money for me. like said above move around until you find them and once the tide starts moving the fish really start to feed. as far as swimbaits go i havnt landed any fish in awhile but been getting followers on the ganterel near tullie points with grass clumps mixed in

Thanks for all the quick responses guys i really appreciate it! Stipers are always fun to catch, i'll have to xperiment with some baits and hopefully get a few. I plan on exploring a lot of the river by me and hopefully finding some deeper holes like you guys said. May need to pick up a few new baits for up here as well!

I was actually at paradise beach yesturday and was thinking about walking the shoreline. Thanks for the info bro ill probably go down there sometime soon. I'm guessing there isnt a big population of largemouth in the American?

Hey guys so ive moved from sd all the way to sacramento to start college up here at sac state. I'm staying in the dorms and got the American river running right behind the building so of course i gotta bring a rod up. I've used the search bar and found a couple things out but i'm still a little lost as far of spot acess and what works. i also dont have a car so id be walking to my spots. I was wondering if there were any locals up here who could point me in the right direction. Not asking for anyones spots of course just some info about about how to fish up here. Any info would be much appreciated!

From what i read shore fishing will be allowed but it will be limited to certain areas

Doesn't the bailey swim have a longer handle then the other irods? If so I'd get that one I've heard great reviews on irods.. Or get an okuma guide select if money's tight

If your looking for some night time ninja spots I know of a couple. Pm me if want and I can help you out

Great video man. That first lake has been ruff to me lately. Missed a couple fish yesterday

First of all id like to wish everyone good luck this year with all your goals and i hope everyone can stick a pig! Here are just a couple goals of mine for this new year. 1. Catch a fish over 7 pounds on a swimbait 2. explore new waters around the sd area 3. fish with new people and learn from them

Hey guys its been awhile! So a buddy of mine just gave me a fresh spool of pline cxx. the only problem is that its in the fluorescent green color. I need some line but im fishing crystal clear reservoirs here in San Diego and im a little hesitant to use such a bright color. Do you think this color line is fine or should i swap it out for a different color? Any advice you be greatly appreciated

I usually throw 8in hudds, swaver 200s, 8in bbzs, and gantarels. Im thinking the xh is the way to go. The rod looks sweet cant wait to get my hands on one.

Great review man! Do you think your heavy could handle 8 inch hudds and baits around that weight?

Hey guy's ive been looking into getting a new rod here soon for an early birthday present but i cant decide on which one to get. I was originally planning on getting a Daiwa dx sb rod but the new okuma guide select A is really interesting also. Ill mostly be throwing 8 inch hudds and swaver 200s. Any input would be much appreciated!

yea i think i like the 200 the best.its probably about time to upgrade my rod selection anyways.Any suggestions for a cheap rod that could handle these bigger baits? Im kinda short on funds so id say around 120$ would be my max. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Alright hanks guy's! Ill probably be picking one up this weekend and give it a testing next week. Hopefully finally catch a decent size fish on the big bait!

Alright thanks for the responses guy's. Im a little new to the big bait game and was thinking this would be a great bait to try as far as gliders go. Been throwing hudds but havnt had much luck. Hopefully this bait will pay off it looks killer!

Do any of you So Cal guy ever use the swaver 200 or 168? Was thinking about picking up one but i cant decide which one. I only have a medium heavy 7 6 ft rod so idk if if the 200 is to big. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the info guys i appreciate it! SD_customs i tried to PM you but it wouldn't go through. Something about not being able to get new mail

Has anyone ever had any luck at lake Poway on big baits? Ive only thrown them there a couple times for only a couple dinky followers. Was thinking it might be because of the gin clear water. Any info would be much appreciated.

Yea that's probably were i went wrong. I usually just huck it, reel, and do a twitch at the end. Ill try and twitch it and snap it more often throughout the retrieve. Thanks for all the tips guys this makes me wanna get out and catch a pig!

Alright guys thanks for the responses! I had lost a lot of confidence in the bait since i had only had a couple followers. I have the slow sink so ill try it when the wind picks up.

Hey guys im new to the forum. Has anyone had any luck on the 8' BBZ trout around the SD area? Ive been throwing it for awhile and have only had a couple dinky followers. Any advice is appreciated!
